Niagara Falls, Or Does It? #1 (Hank Zipzer)

This was a Battle for the Books for my school and it was a humorous story alright. Hank Zipzer is a smart kid like his parents say he is, he just has to work harder on tests, projects and homework. When he comes back for the beginning of the year, Hank's teacher wants everyone to write essays about where they went to during their summer vacation. Hank chooses a creative option he makes up for himself. He decides to make a model of Niagara Falls. His idea begins off so great, but who knew how many twists and turns could come with a simple decision of a model?

A Handful of Stars

A Handful of Stars

By Cynthia Lord

Okay, okay.... let's begin, A Handful of Stars by Cynthia Lord was a book that I liked. This one makes you feel two emotions, happy and sad. I'll show you what I mean by using emojis. ( This contains spoilers) Lucky running away ( 😭) Meeting Salma (😀) Finding out that Salma is poor (😭) PorkPie (😀) Lucky being blind (😭) Entering Pageant (💄😀) Now, now, now... the negatives. Well, I really did not like the fact that Hannah always wins. And just because Salma was telling the truth she did not make it. I kind of felt a tad bit of racism from the judges of the pageant and the characters in general. But anyway, as I reviewer I stress a lot about the details, and I found that a little something was wrong with the concept. Other than that, I really loved this one. I recommend this, and three stars is nothing to sneeze about😀
